You may be planning ahead, looking for more support after a hospital stay, or starting to feel that daily life at home has become harder for someone close to you. Whatever stage you are at, our teams can talk through the support your loved one may need and what a next step could look like, whether that is a visit, a conversation about fees, or simply more information.

Care Types: Residential | Nursing | Dementia | Respite
Meryton Place is a CQC-rated Good care home where residents are supported to feel settled, known and comfortable from the first few days. With nurses available day and night, welcoming shared spaces and care shaped around familiar routines, the home offers support for both longer-term moves and shorter stays.
When families are choosing care in Bristol, reassurance often comes from more than location alone. It comes from knowing that support is planned carefully, care is built around the person, and the people caring for each resident take time to understand what matters to them.
Not every family starts with the name of a care type. You may simply know that daily life has become harder, health needs have changed, or short-term support is needed. Hamberley provides residential, nursing, dementia and respite care in the Bristol area, helping families understand which type of support may be right.
Everyday support and companionship
Residential care may be suitable when living at home has become more difficult, or when someone would benefit from regular help with daily routines, meals, personal care, medication and companionship.
Nursing support day and night
Nursing care supports people with more complex health needs, long-term conditions, reduced mobility or recovery needs after illness, surgery or a hospital stay, with registered nurses available day and night.
Memory loss and dementia support
Dementia care provides reassurance, routine and personal support for people living with memory loss, confusion or changes in communication, mood or behaviour.
Short-term care and recovery

The team will take time to understand the person’s health, routines and wider care needs before explaining what support may be appropriate.
Dementia care is available from Hamberley at both Lovell Place Care Home and Meryton Place Care Home in the Bristol area, shaped around each resident’s routines, life story and personal preferences.
Support is designed for people experiencing memory loss, confusion, changes in communication, or moments of anxiety and distress. The focus is on patience, consistency and understanding who the person is, not just their diagnosis.
Families are kept close to how care is planned and reviewed, helping them feel reassured as needs change over time.
Short-term respite care can be arranged at Lovell Place Care Home and Meryton Place Care Home in the Bristol area, subject to availability and an assessment of care needs.
Respite care may help when someone needs extra support after illness, surgery or a hospital stay, or when a family carer needs time to rest or manage other responsibilities. Some families also use a short stay to see how care feels before making a longer-term decision.
The team can talk through what is happening, how soon support may be needed, and whether respite care could be suitable.
You are welcome to visit before deciding, and many families find it helpful to take their time.
A visit gives you the chance to look around, meet the team, ask questions and get a clearer sense of whether the home feels right for your loved one. You may wish to visit with your loved one, come with another family member, or return more than once before making a decision.
Some families also find it useful to attend an event or activity, as this can give a better feel for daily life in the home. It is also a good opportunity to talk through what has been happening recently, what support may be needed, and what the next steps could look like.
Care can sometimes be arranged within days, though timing depends on the person's needs, room availability, and any required assessments. If support is needed quickly, it's best to speak to the team as soon as you can. They can talk through what's changed, whether care is needed for a short stay or a longer-term move, and what information may be needed to help things move forward safely.
Care costs vary by care type, room choice and individual circumstances, the team can explain current fees and what's included. They can also talk through funding questions, including whether care is privately funded, local authority funded, or supported in another way. Because every situation is different, it's usually best to speak to the team directly for clear, up-to-date guidance based on the care your loved one may need.
Start with what your loved one needs now, as well as what may change in the future, then look for a home that feels calm, welcoming and well run.
When you visit, consider:
The right care home should feel safe and suitable for your loved one's care needs, but also somewhere they could feel comfortable in daily life.
